Fix broken doc links and http→https where possible
I got a cookie-cutter email from folks noting the modssl.org doc links were broken and asking us to use their site instead, which was both helpful and a rather heavy page with advertising on it, so not something I want our docs to link to. Fixed the modssl link to point to the correct current Apache docs, since mod_ssl has not been a separate project for … a very long time. Audited every `http:` link in the Spec, replacing with https if available, updating URLs as needed, or trimming deadwood as appropriate. This did edit one license text, but in a way which I believe is reasonable and in the license holder's best interests. * Use comments with a datestamp for any remaining http: URLs, showing when they were last audited * Suggest migrating away from Berkeley DB. * Drop mention of a patched `pam_unix` module which is no longer available. * In revamping the CDB tools links, add my own tools. * Redo the intro text for the mod_ssl stuff (first person voice of PH). * Rescorla's book's online examples appear to be gone; drop mention of them and point to Ristić's more recent book too. * Point to wikipedia list of DNSxL services as an overview, in part because I dropped the reference to the defunct rfc-ignorant.org and there was no good candidate as an exemplar for domain-based lists. * Note that mksd is a candidate for removal from Exim since mks_vir is dead. * Drop LogReport/lire reference (dead/gone and can't find it). * Redo proxy protocol spec-linking text. * Replace FAQ A1701 with text saying "don't do that" (self-signed certs) and just telling people to use a CA instead, pointing strongly to Let's Encrypt. We did nobody any favors with that old text still being present today (it was entirely appropriate when written).
